Wake- up Call- Part of the reason we are in this mess, and the main reason why the American people don’t even know what is happening to them, is that the illusion machine (television) has removed the American population tragically far from reality. The gap between the news we see on TV, and what is actually happening in the world today, is the most severe it has ever been. We have been bred to be completely removed from reality. As famed American philosopher and psychologist John Dewey once said, “We live exposed to the greatest flood of mass suggestion that any people has ever experienced.” more

A 21-year-old woman has been arrested after senior Labour MP Stephen Timms was stabbed in the stomach during a constituency advice surgery.

Mr Timms, 54, was said to be in "good spirits" as he recovered in hospital after the incident at the Beckton Globe community facility in Kingsford Way, east London, where the East Ham MP was holding a regular surgery.

A Scotland Yard spokeswoman said police were called to the scene at 3.20pm. She said: "A 21-year-old woman was arrested at the scene and is currently in custody at an east London police station."

WSWS- In the wake of the $1 trillion euro bailout agreement reached at the beginning of this week, governments throughout Europe have unveiled austerity measures that include sweeping attacks on jobs, wages and basic social rights. more

Prison Planet- Trilateral Commission member Mikhail Slobodovsici, a chief adviser to the Russian leadership, unwittingly provided a revealing insight into the plans of the global elite during the group’s recent meeting in Dublin Ireland, when he mistakenly told a We Are Change Ireland activist he thought was a fellow TC member that the globalists are planning a war with Iran. more

Sovereign Independent-Customers of BPS visiting one of its ATMs in Warsaw have the option of placing their fingerprints on readers, instead inputting a four-digit code, to authorise withdrawals or other transactions, following the introduction of new technology this week. more

Dressed in full ceremonial robes Kenneth Clarke was welcomed by the country's judiciary today as the latest Lord Chancellor of Great Britain.

In full wig and resplendent in black and gold attire - but without his customary suede shoes - the Secretary of State for Justice was sworn in to an office which has its origins as far back as the Norman Conquest. More……..

Kitco- Reports from the Labor Department today tried to polish-up terrible jobless reports with all kinds of numbers tricks and Pollyana talk. Most of the Sheeple and smarter media members and analysts are not buying it. We reported some new predictions this week and they are not pretty. The Ships Of State in the U.S. and in many other nations in Europe are floundering and rudderless. This is not going to end well at all. A fiscal firestorm with the attendant social problems looms. Buckle up your money belt and hunker down for an international systemic hurricane. more

Guardian-Let us start by being very charitable to the new Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition. Those who wrote the agreement underpinning their union must have been very tired when they put pen to paper.

One has to hope so, because at first sight, the Con-Lib Dem coalition has launched an audacious attempt to gerrymander parliament's rules. On its first day. more
